Cookware
baking sheet pan · chef's knife · citrus juicer (optional) · colander · cutting board · grater · measuring cups · measuring spoons · mixing bowls · oven mitts · small saucepan · spatula · stirring spoon · tongs · vegetable peeler · whisk or fork
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F and place the racks in the upper and lower thirds.
- Rinse the broccoli, then cut into bite-sized florets and smaller stems; spread on a baking sheet, drizzle with oil, sprinkle with the listed spices, and toss to coat.
- Roast the broccoli on the lower rack until lightly charred and fork-tender, about 12–15 minutes.
- Mix the spices in a small bowl for the fish. Pat the sole dry and brush with oil; season evenly on both sides and place on a separate baking sheet.
- Roast the fish on the upper rack until flaky and cooked through, about 10 minutes.
- In a small saucepan, grate the carrot and add it to the pan with broth; bring to a boil, then remove from heat and stir in the couscous and garlic powder; cover and let stand for 10 minutes.
- Fluff the cooked couscous with a fork and stir in the sliced almonds and raisins.
- Whisk together the juice of the lemon, honey, and oil in a bowl to make the honey-lemon sauce.
- When the broccoli is done, drizzle it with the honey-lemon sauce and toss to coat.
- To serve, divide the fish, couscous pilaf, and broccoli between plates and enjoy the combination of textures and flavors.
Two tips
- Prepare the broccoli and spice mix in advance for smoother assembly.
- Leftovers can be stored separately: keep fish, couscous, and broccoli in airtight containers for up to 2 days; reheat gently. Try a squeeze of lemon over leftovers for brightness.
